I really like what Vit did with his Storm font support, and I think it's
probably the way to support "Companion" encodings in general.
<http://typokvitek.com/typokv-download-TeX-en.html>

Basically, he adopts a variant convention in his typescripts (main
encoding, and the companion font is typesynonym'd to main encoding +
suffix [e.g., ec-hoekwater and ec-hoekwater-companion]), and then
defines the extra characters and font \variant[]s of the main encoding.
Pretty clean, in my opinion.

I brought this up with TS1/Companion encodings before on the list, but
got the strong impression people weren't interested. :)
